Pros

We are always busy. You get paid hourly wage plus bonus on sales. Ongoing training, promotions, awards, incentives, etc! They do all the advertising and you don't have to worry about building a clientele. Plan on being here for a long time!

Cons

We only do haircuts. Sometimes I miss color and waxing. And then I get over it...😉 I can color my families hair at home!
